The Untold Chronicles Of The Kenobi's Chapter 16, a star wars fanfic

School starts tomorrow, again. sniff. It just isn't fair! And now exams are ever so closer, I think I'm gonna cry. But I haven't yet and this is the next chapter. All talk I'm afraid but it does cover some necessary points and it has been planed for a while. sniff.

Black's Phoenix: It will change Obi-Wan and Anakin's relationship but I'm not going to let it change the ultimate outcomes. There is a point to all of that, though we all know there is no justice in the world. (Why does Luke even have to be born? WHY?). Thanks for reviewing.

-SmolderingEMBERS-of-A-brokenHearT-: Consider your request fulfilled. I had a few spare moments and I hope I wasn't too harsh. You write really well and I fully understand how family are blind to anything you do wrong (my dad's a writer so I get the full encouragement and "it could be better if you do this" stuff). But anyway, thank you for reviewing.

dmitchell: Why not? You shouldn't have to have an account or sign in all of the time to leave a review! You are one very lucky person, you escaped the drag that is high school. May you live forever in the peace that isn't tests, exams, chemistry and maths. For chem. I have a fat whale of a teacher who consistently sends me to sleep. Maths… well everyone wants to kill one of my maths teachers. She has that way with people… The discussion, I hope you enjoy it and thank you for reviewing.

obiisgod: Jason Stratham… Stop drooling on the computer obiisgod! But god, isn't he hot! Completely off topic but still. Dante, a little hell raiser. He has a purpose greater than in this story and Keitha loves him even though he likes to attack her. Other than that, your completely insane girl! Now I have to flee and take a page out of your book, I'm gonna hunt down happy pictures of Jason Stratham so I don't have to listen to the land whale in chem tomorrow morning. God… Please use your mighty powers to smite school. Thank you. Do you think that will work? No? Dang, then I'll see you tomorrow then.

Review. I'll need the pick-me-up. Whatever sick idiot who planned my Mondays as Chemistry first up and Maths last lesson should be shot off of the top of a very tall building.

"Obi-Wan, we need to talk."

Obi-Wan sat down on his bed in the sparsely furnished room that served as his quarters in the Jedi Temple. There was practically nothing in it, just a single bed in one corner and a kitchenette in the other. There was a small refresher unit also in the room in the corner opposite the kitchenette. There was a holo station and a single chair. A small room with practically no material possessions, it was the perfect indicator of what life as a Jedi was like. There were no pictures or mementos, nothing to personalise the space at all. This was more of a result of Obi-Wan never being there than that it was forbidden as even the Jedi Order wasn't so strict that you couldn't have any type of possession at all. Anakin sat down on the lone chair and turned to face Obi-Wan. Anakin set his eyes solidly onto Obi-wan and flicked his hand. The door locked. Obi-Wan tried to asses what was going on in his friend's head.

"You said you wanted to talk to me?"

Anakin's blue eyes glared at him.

"I said we need to talk."

Obi-Wan frowned slightly. He wasn't used to Anakin being this cold.

"Well, I do believe we can talk now, if you want. What's troubling you?"

"You lied."

It was sudden and cut deep. Obi-Wan sat a little straighter and looked hard at his colleague.

"About what?"

Anakin stood up and started to pace. He was obviously trying to gather his thoughts and say something difficult. He was facing a wall when he finally said it, standing still.

"You have an attachment."

Anakin turned to catch Obi-Wan's stunned reaction.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

Obi-Wan felt like his whole world had just collapsed. His voice sounded like he hadn't used it in years.

"How? How did you find out? What do you know?"

Anakin sat back down.

"How doesn't matter. You covered your tracks very well. I still have no idea who the woman is. All I know is a woman said to Padme that you are in a very similar situation to me. Now I want to know, Obi-Wan, who is it and what have you done?"

Obi-Wan allowed his face to harden and his resolve to increase. Anakin had let too many things slip without realising it. He was no diplomat and now he had overplayed his hand.

"You just told me how. So you have kept in very close contact with Senator Amidala? And if you are in a similar predicament as me then you will soon be cast out of the order along with me."

Anakin blushed and tried to dip his head. Now that he was on the back foot Obi-Wan felt it was time to show him who was the Master present and who had the most information.

"I had known that you were still close to her, I think I even knew what you were doing, I just didn't think that you would be stupid enough to actually fall into that problem."

Anakin started to move to the defensive the only way he knew how, by attacking.

"You've done it too!"

"Yes but it wasn't so obvious now, was it?"

"There are those who have stayed in the order and had a family, even children!"

"Yes, but when was the last time they saw those children, hmm? They never have the time to see their families and they don't have families in high ranking positions!"

"I love my wife, that's all that matters! And you don't even have the balls to tell me what you've done!"

Obi-Wan wasn't cut, he just felt it was time to close the argument and get Anakin back to talking politely with him.

"You married her? I can't believe that you were so stupid! Do you know nothing?"

Anakin looked calmer, visibly trying to smother the rage he was feeling.

"What?"

Obi-Wan decided it was time to fill in his misguided former padawan on the facts of life and politics.

"You've created a paper trail. Now anyone with the resources can hunt down any information they want on you. They can find out that you married her and use that against you. If you have attachment to someone you don't give your enemies that attachment in a gift wrapped package. You endangered her life when you did that."

Anakin pointed at him.

"I chose to marry the woman I love so that I can say she is my wife and we have made a promise to always be together. I'm going to have a child and it's not going to be illegitimate. Can you say that Obi-Wan, or is everything that I have done still stupid?"

Obi-Wan gave Anakin an even gaze.

"I didn't marry her and I don't call her my wife, but I can be sure that she won't go to anyone else while we are together. There is no paper trail for anyone to follow us by and it could not be proven that we are together. I will never tell you her name simply because I want our child to be safe from any type of accident that could be brought upon it. And let's face it Anakin, you're not very good at hiding things."

They sat in silence for a moment. Anakin broke it and rose to his feet.

"You don't have to tell me anything more and I'm sure that our secrets are safe with each other. I will find out who it is. I already have an idea."

Obi-Wan watched as Anakin walked out of the door and sighed. It was all getting messy now.

Aithne walked down one of the many grand halls of the Jedi Temple. Dante had needed to talk to Master Windu and had wanted to in private. Aithne had to smile at that. He was getting independent, a very good thing. Right now she was walking down the hall towards Master Windu's room to collect Dante when he came out. She stood there content with the knowledge that her apprentice was growing up fast. He would be a great Jedi, she could feel it even now in the depths of her soul. She let her mind wander, not a regular occurrence with her but when she had the time it would fly away on its own accord. 'Just imagine in a couple of months from now when Keitha has grown to the size of a land whale. Dante will be having all kinds of fun hassling her.' Her muses were cut short when a male voice sliced through the air towards her.

"Aithne."

Aithne turned to see the face of her summoner and found herself looking into the breast bone of a tall young man. She looked up to view his face and recognised it from holovids she had seen recently. She was standing in front of 'the hero without fear', Anakin Skywalker.

"Anakin. What can I do for you?"

Anakin's face scrunched slightly as he assessed the physical structure of the shorter Jedi with his eyes.

"I have looked into a bunch of security vids for Senator Amidala. She was visited by a Jedi recently and she wanted to know who it was. So I looked at them and I saw your robe entering her room. Can you explain yourself?"

Aithne couldn't believe it. She had to say something.

"What? There are so many things wrong with that statement I cannot believe you just said it! I have never visited Senator Amidala, I have no reason to, and even if I did I would have taken my padawan with me. Second, How can you tell one Jedi robe from another and for the last, we're in the middle of a war. How can you possibly find the time to go look through security footage for some Senator when your colleagues are dying?"

Anakin almost took a step back. He had obviously no idea what he was messing with. Aithne took a full step forward placing her straight up against his chest. She rose a finger and pointed it so it almost touched the tip of his nose.

"If you have a real accusation to make, do it already! I have a life and I don't want you to take up my whole day."

The hero without fear looked a little shocked at the outburst and he blurted out what he had originally been trying to say.

"Are you sleeping with Obi-Wan?"

Aithne laughed, a sweet mocking sound that floated through the air. This wasn't the first time someone had mistaken her for Obi-Wan's lover but she prayed it was the last. She was laughing solely because it put him off guard. She was tired of being mistaken for Keitha.

"Do I look like I would sleep with Obi-Wan Kenobi? Is it because you think that I'm attractive enough to woo him? Well I hate to tell you but that isn't correct and I've had enough of you trying to act all macho towards me. My apprentice will be coming out of that room soon and then I will leave, but before I do I will throw you a tidbit and then some advice. His lover is pregnant and if you go after her there will be more people after you than just your former master. Is that clear?"

Anakin felt her through the Force and realised that she wasn't pregnant and that he had made a bad mistake. Aithne took a step back, returning to a comfortable distance from him. She snorted lightly.

"The hero without fear my arse!"

Anakin glared at her and then left, vowing to continue his search when he had more information.

Keitha looked at the people in her apartment and understood why they were upset. Obi-Wan was annoyed that she had gone to Senator Amidala and told her the truth and Aithne was annoyed with everyone and everything but the brunt of her anger was being directed towards Obi-Wan.

"It isn't my fault! He confronted me first!"

"Why does everyone believe that I would sleep with you? Why does anyone believe that at all? Do I look like I'm loose or something? Do I look like a temptress?"

"What did you say?"

"Does it even matter? WHY?"

Keitha held her head and massaged her temples. Thanks to Anakin Skywalker this was going to be a long night.

Poor Keitha. You've gotta feel for her. Review.
